Make It

Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add egg and food colorings; mix just until blended. Pour over brownie batter; cut through batter with knife several times for marble effect.

Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until cream cheese mixture is lightly browned. Cool in pan on wire rack. Cut into 32 squares.

How to Soften Cream Cheese

Place completely unwrapped package of cream cheese on microwavable plate. Microwave on HIGH 10 to 15 seconds or until slightly softened.

Special Extra

For easy cleanup, line baking pan with foil using this easy method. Turn pan upside down and fit a piece of foil over top of pan, smoothing corners as needed. Remove foil. When you turn the pan over, the foil fits perfectly inside the pan.

I read most all of the reviews before proceeding to make this recipe for the first time.I read most all of the reviews before proceeding to make this recipe for the first time. A lot of the reviews stated that there was not enough cream cheese mixture. Believe me...FOLLOW the recipe. DO NOT ADD more cream cheese mixture, as the brownies stay soggy and they look like they are not cooked. A hint when pouring the cheese mixture onto the brownies: pour it in stipes, or make 6-8 globs of the cream cheese..this makes for much easier marbelizing!!!!!!!!!!The five star rating is when I made them exactly according to the recipe!!

The frosting was very good.The frosting was very good. I was afraid it might be too rich, but it was the perfect compliment to the brownies. I used red and green food coloring for Christmas brownies.
